Description

The Structure of Biological Membranes provides an in-depth view of the fundamental elements of biological membrane structure and function. All of the important subjects of membrane structure and function are represented, including the lipids, the proteins, and interactions between the two; membrane transport; membrane fusion; and an integrated view of membranes as a functioning unit. The well-organized, sophisticated discussions by recognized experts and primary literature contained in the book make The Structure of Biological Membranes an important volume for researchers and students alike.
